A bunch of the folks I work with know about my interest in phones and they also do a lot of flea markets, yard sales and box lot auctions. Yesterday, I was presented  with these four phones--- purchased all together at an antique store in Raleigh NC for $10: a yellowed white 1979 ITT 500, a harvest gold 1972 North Telecom ITT 554, a parts phone-- 1960 soft plastic and bakelite black Kellogg ITT ( with a 500EF made in canada base, a pink station cord, and a WE 55 dial),  and a 1956 black 465GG with what I think is all original date matched parts including a NE 6 dial.  I thought this is a really clean phone (on the interior) and very cool so I thought I would share some pictures. The dial card is perforated, the finger stop imprinted with a 6, the left handset cradle button is an exclusion key, intact desi card cover, a straight handset cord, and the station cord is green with tape in one area.
